RMEC Your Help Is Needed Again!

Thanks to everyone who gave Ford's Colony a push last week to help fill in the remaining spots. There are only two 5k spots left, and less than 20 10k spots. We now need your help again for the Medoc Trail Races!

The final price increase for Medoc occurs this coming Monday (09/01). So if you don't sign up over the weekend, you will pay the extra 10 bucks. We want to try to get a late push to fill in some of the remaining race spots.

We are on pace right now for 220-240 total runners, so it is not a concern of having enough people. The more runners that sign up early, the easier our planning is. We need to order shirts, finishers medals, food, gels, water bottles, timing chips, etc. All of this take lead time, so knowing our runners early helps.

I realize finding people to run a 5k is easier than finding people for a trail race, but please do your part and help us find runners. If you read the comments under the Medoc Meltdown post below, you will see nothing but praise. Several first time trail runners had a great time and did very well. Don't let the "trail aspect" of the race keep you away.

Lastly, if you can't find us a runner. . . find us a volunteer. This is key to the success of the race. No experience is necessary. If you can smile, point, clap, cheer, hand out cups, give out food, etc, then you have the skills we are looking for!

Don't let us down RMEC. . . If you are reading this post (even if you are not a RMEC member), do your part to help make this event a great success!
